Symantec will first attach Enterprise Vault to SPN for data management purposes, and will hold off on adding e-discovery capabilities until large data sets can be moved and secured more easily over the Internet.

Microsoft Corp. and Iron Mountain Digital rolled out a new cloud backup service recently for customers of Microsoft's Data Protection Manager (DPM) Service Pack 1 (SP 1), released last month with new features including granular backups for Hyper-V.

CloudRecovery for Data Protection Manager is sold by Iron Mountain, and is accessed through DPM's GUI as a checkbox for a user to select when choosing an offsite backup method (DPM also backs up to disk and tape). Iron Mountain will then collect, encrypt and transport data according to a user-selected schedule from DPM. The service is priced by capacity and retention period for the amount of storage used.
